file hierarchy

A file hierarchy is like a digital filing system that organizes files and folders logically. It starts with a main folder, called the root, which contains subfolders (like drawers) and files (like papers). Each subfolder can contain more subfolders and files, creating a tree-like structure. This organization helps users locate and manage data efficiently. For example, a "Documents" folder might contain subfolders like "Work" and "Personal," each holding relevant files. The hierarchy ensures everything is organized systematically, making it easier to find and access information when needed.
